25-Dec-2013 , 02:09:45 pmAs per Income tax Act, TDS should be deducted on payment made to NRI u/s 195. If we fail to deduct TDS then the expenditure will get disallowed. As per DTAA benefit it can be given to the company having permanent establishment in India. In this case there no permanent establishment so it will be governed by Income Tax Act,1961 u/s 9. Stating-Income by way of interest/royalty/ FTS [Section 9(1)(v)/(vi)/(vii)]: Vide Finance Act, 1976, a source rule was provided in section 9 through insertion of clauses (v), (vi) and (vii) in sub-section (1) for income by way of interest, royalty or fees for technical services respectively. It was provided, inter alia , that in case of payments as mentioned under these clauses, income would be deemed to accrue or arise in India to the non-resident under the circumstances specified therein.
